The inhabitants of Trinidad live for the carnival. Once brought by the French, the tradition fills up the streets of Trinidad on Monday and Tuesday before Ash-Wednesday. Starting with the Soca Monarch show on Friday, the competition for the carnival song, to choose the best steel band on Saturday, the choice of the best costume of the king and queen masks on Dimanche Gras, Sunday, the street party J'ouvert in the night before Monday and the colorful parades on Monday and Tuesday, the Tradition of carnival is lived in Trinidad. The documentation accompanies among others Brian Mac Farlane, a carneval designer, who is preparing with his band during the whole year for the shows on Carnival. This year his band prepares costumes relating to the clothes in the end of the 18th century. Concerning the colours everything is in gold and copper while the masquerade itself is the close to the historic archtype. His Motto in 2019 carries the name Resurrection the Mas. The stilkwalker Seven Nicholls is the Queen of the Band The King of the Band is wearing a Dragon Costume and will be accompanied by little devils. But also other carnival minded people like Mendell Manwarran, Artist, or Desmond Waithel, conductor of the Steelband Redegades explain the special role of carnival on Trinidad

This description of Carnival is trash.
They missed out all the horrific truth about the colonisers and how carnival was was a form of resistance against white oppression
